[linux-audio-user] jack_fst build question

[Dave Phillips]

Hi Mark:

  The docs refer to the vst directory but fail to tell that they mean 
the fst directory. Ergo:

    /home/dlphilp/fst-1.5/vst/

on my machine. You put the two headers there, run './fixheaders' from 
the fst-1.2 top directory, and voila, fresh include files, ready for baking.

  I have rewritten the Quick Toot on using VST/VSTi plugins and will be 
putting it on-line soon. Kjetil has already reviewed it made a few 
corrections, I'm waiting now to hear from either Paul or Torben 
regarding the newly added material on fst. Hopefully the revised 
tutorial will be more helpful.

  You no stupid user. You heap big brave to attempt this loco stuff 
okay, you betcha. :)

Best regards,

dp
